Cerberus Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 just a quick weigh in on the cartridge filter, the best choice in my experience is to loosen the 'cap' / filter holder until the seals are free so the air lock is broken, then go underneath to drain the pan, plug it again, and go back up top to remove the filter and replace it. this allows the filter housing to drain and as much of the oil in as possible to drain as well. I'd like to see Purolator make a BOSS filter for this application.. i've used them exclusively (Pure One before that) with Mobil 1 for years in whatever I own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowkid Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago hi folks -- original owner of a 2022 ST, and decided to start doing my own oil changes again now that I'm retired. But I'm having trouble finding a good video etc. for an ST, and I suspect it's not the same as for other Edges? if anyone can direct me to a video or other instruction I would greatly appreciate it. Thx john p 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't expect it to have changed for later models. 2015 Ford Edge 2.7EB Oil & Filter Change x.PDF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn it down until it bottoms out and that's it - its seals on the o-rings and doesn't need any torque for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
